Daily exercise, first thing in the morning, never skip. I don’t necessarily trust myself to eat strict enough to avoid exercising.

2 meals a day, limit carbs, limit cheese, limit alcohol, limit dessert. Every day is another chance to do it right or wrong. If more days are good than bad, you’ll maintain. If every day is good, you’ll lose. If most days are bad, you’ll gain. Gets steps. Count calories.

Be careful!

I have 3 neighbors that were only about 10-15 pounds (looked fine) get on it and they have become skeletors. Their legs are like toothpicks- I don’t know how they can stand. They also aged in the face. They got into makeup/hair/clothes and it’s some freakish mid50s-60s look.

They look like they are wearing American Doll clothes.

If any one of them gets sick, cancer, etc., they won’t survive. If they fall looks like a broken hip.

The women that exercise with weights, still eat, maybe they are a little more than they weighed in their 30s look so much better.

I think it’s bringing out the eating disorders. Back in my day it was Laxative abuse—smoking, etc…this is even more dangerous since they can get too skinny too quick and keep going …

Good for you that your natural glp-1 hormone balance is good. Some of us are not as blessed.

Willpower. Get some.

How?

Don't bring the stuff home. Don't buy it in the first place at the grocery store.

Clearly with meds. Just eat less. It’s not that hard.

Are these covered by insurance? Even after one loses weight?

Hi, I’ve been resisting, but I think I need to get on these meds. There seem to be so many different kinds now. So, is the idea that one takes these for the rest of their life?

Has anyone successfully stopped a GLP-1 and maintained goal weight long term? Any tips for success?

Yes, I know the answer is to continue diet and exercise habits that got you to the goal weight.

Yes. Eat less and move more. It’s that simple.

Really? All the obese and overweight people in the world must have not received the memo. We must get the word out!

OP, you will get better advice and support on Reddit. The Zepbound and Mountjaro groups are terrific.

Then get some willpower.

And keep exercising.

I wish it was this easy (NP). I had finally figured out how to lose weight in my late forties by exercising and counting calories. But then I started an SSRI and peri-menopause and it has been impossible to lose weight.

Some of you are either just mean or ignorant. You act as if people like my sister with PCOS and diagnosed insulin resistance have never tried eating less and moving more.

For her, glp-1 has literally been the only thing that has resulted in weight loss. Still TBD whether she will be on it for life or can wean off. But the irony is she’s judged for using medication but also judged for being overweight. She and her doctors still feel like a healthy weight and BMI are the best plan or her.

But clearly some people will judge her no matter what.
